Remarks & Notes 
The Widmer Rail Services (WRS) has been active in timber transport to Swiss Krono company in Menznau for some time. This train 69250 is hauled by the locomotives Re 430 # 111 and # 115 and runs from Rothrist freight station via Langenthal-Huttwil to Menznau West, with 5 loaded double wagons of type Sggmrrs of Innofreight. The multifunctional wagons, here in the variant "RWP-WoodSweden", were loaded at Vallorbe in the Jura and the train ran via Morges (hairpin) -Lausanne-Fribourg-Bern to Rothrist GB (hairpin). Between Vallorbe and Rothrist, the diesel shunter Tm 232 # 530 of the WRS was in the train too, to switch the cars in Vallorbe. The Re 430 # 111 was built in 1969 as Re 4/4 III # 111 for the Emmental-Burgdorf-Thun Bahn (EBT,) the Re 430 # 115 as Re 4/4 III # 181 in 1983 for the Solothurn-Moutier-Bahn (SMB).
